Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing a foodstuff a heating block (59) having a top side (60) and a bottom side (61), the bottom side (61) being complementary to a portion of the cylinder (11), the heating block (59) being removable from the housing (16) and from the container (1).

Abstract: A handcuff for the treatment of the carpal tunnel syndrome of a hand, the handcuff comprising a base body including a dorsal section and a palmar section. The dorsal section is adapted to exert a pressure on the dorsal side of the hand at at least one location, the palmar section is arranged to exert a pressure on the palmar side of the hand on both sides of the carpal tunnel respectively at at least one location on both sides of the carpal tunnel, and the dorsal section and the palmar section are arranged to widen the carpal tunnel of the hand by the exertion of pressure. In embodiments, the base body has, between the dorsal section and the palmar section, two substantially opposite open slots, between the dorsal section and the palmar section, and the slots are adapted to receive the thumb of the left or the right hand.

Abstract: A device for treating carpal tunnel syndrome of a person's hand, which has a palmar aspect, with thenar and hypothenar regions, and a dorsal aspect opposite the palmar aspect. The cuff has a C-shaped profile in cross section, wherein two ends of the C-shaped profile of the cuff form the cuff opening. The cuff is formed from two or more cuff parts, wherein these cuff parts have a C-shaped profile in cross section and are connected to each other by means of a connection element to form the cuff. The cuff parts are preferably connected to each other, by means of the connection element, in a movable and/or pivotable and also releasable manner, such that the width of the cuff opening can be individually adapted for each patient. This results in simple, efficient and safe treatment and handling of the cuff according to the invention or of the device.

Abstract: A rotating mechanism characterized by a drive arrangement which provides rotating, hoisting and dropping functions with just a single drive.

Abstract: In a hand drilling tool, in particular for drilling out spot welds, comprising a bracing support means which is releasably mounted to the body of the drilling machine and which is displaceable in the direction of the drilling axis by way of an actuating lever which terminates in a handle, it is provided that the lever (4) acts on a fitment sleeve (6) which embraces the body (2) of the drilling machine and on which the bracing support means (3) is mounted and that the fitment sleeve (6) is adapted to be axially displaceable with respect to the body (2) of the drilling machine. To eliminate moments the axis of the lever which acts on the fitment sleeve intersects the axis of the body of the drilling machine.
